Miramachi

Miramichi has as much natural beauty as its residents have natural charm in a region steeped in storytelling. Running through the heart of this region is the Miramichi River, world-renowned for its salmon fishing and with the city of Miramichi right at its mouth.

From villages to small towns to the city of Miramichi, this region is filled with stories, history, and culture. Given that the Mi’kmaq peoples first called this region home before the Acadian, Scottish, Irish, and English settlers arrived, a real cultural richness permeates communities here.
